If you are stopped for suspicion of DUI, you will be asked to submit to a breath alcohol test by the police officer. You have the right to refuse to take to the breath alcohol test in the field, but it is a violation of law to refuse to take the breath alcohol test that is administered at the station.

Breathalyzers are not 100% accurate. This inaccuracy can be caused by many things, including:

defective test equipment

improper test administration

unlicensed or uncertified person administering the test

police radio interference

Additionally, there are several physical factors that may affect the test. For example, you may have an inaccurate BAC if you ate before the test or used mouthwash.
